# Ingest a CSDS snapshot file.

`POST /admin/csds/{processor}/ingest`

Runs the requested CSDS processor synchronously against an uploaded JSON snapshot rendered from the reporting pipeline. The processor key in the path must be one of `application_codes`, `resolution_codes`, `fee`, `national_court_houses`, or `standard_applicants`. Implemented processors must also be enabled in CSDS ingress configuration; disabled processors return `409 Conflict`, and recognised but unimplemented processors return `501 Not Implemented`. The endpoint honours the distributed CSDS ingest lock and returns `423 Locked` if another run already owns it. The global 5MB multipart file limit applies.

## Path parameters

- `processor` 'application_codes' | 'resolution_codes' | 'fee' | 'national_court_houses' | 'standard_applicants', required

## Response `200`

CSDS ingest completed successfully.
